Abstract

A medicament contg. prothrombin for antagonising blood anticoagulants is new.

Description

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Gegenmittel (Antidot) für Blut-Antikoagulanzien.The invention relates to an antidote for blood anticoagulants.

Die Blutgerinnung ist ein komplexer Prozeß, an dem Plasmaproteine und Zellen beteiligt sind. Die Bildung eines Wundverschlusses wird durch die rasche Adhäsion von Blutplättchen an die geschädigten Oberflächen und durch Proteasen und Kontaktfaktoren eingeleitet, die nacheinander in einer kaskadenartigen Reaktionsabfolge aktiviert werden. Am Ende dieser Vorgänge steht die Erzeugung von Thrombin, das unter anderem die Aktivierung von Fibrinogen zu Fibrin katalysiert.Blood clotting is a complex process involving plasma proteins and cells. The formation of a wound closure is initiated by the rapid adhesion of platelets to the damaged surfaces and by proteases and contact factors, which are activated in succession in a cascade-like reaction sequence. At the end of these processes is the production of thrombin, which among other things catalyzes the activation of fibrinogen to fibrin.

Proteine wie die Faktoren VIII und V tragen als Akzelleratoren zur Effizienz dieses Systems bei. Neben dem Protein C-System regulieren Inhibitoren der beteiligten Proteasen im wesentlichen die Gerinnungsprozesse dahingehend, daß ein Wundverschluß zustandekommt, jedoch überschießende Reaktionen vermieden werden. Wird dieses fein abgestimmte Gleichgewicht gestört, kann dies Fibrinablagerungen bzw. die Bildung von Thrombosen zur Folge haben. Bekanntermaßen sind resultierende Gefäßverschlüsse die Ursache für viele pathophysiologische Prozesse, wie insbesondere den Herzinfarkt. Diese Problematik bekommt ein besonderes Gewicht bei solchen Patienten, die einer erhöhten Thrombosegefahr ausgesetzt sind, was häufig eine postoperative Komplikation darstellt.Proteins such as factors VIII and V, as accelerators, contribute to the efficiency of this system. In addition to the protein C system, inhibitors of the proteases involved essentially regulate the coagulation processes in such a way that wound closure occurs, but excessive reactions are avoided. If this fine-tuned balance is disturbed, fibrin deposits or the formation of thromboses can result. As is known, resulting vascular occlusions are the cause of many pathophysiological processes, such as heart attacks in particular. This problem is particularly important in those patients who are at increased risk of thrombosis, which is often a postoperative complication.

Zur Verhinderung dieser pathophysiologischen Prozesse werden verschiedene Wege beschritten. So werden zur Verhinderung der Thrombusbildung bzw. zur Unterstützung deren Auflösung (Thrombolyse) in der Klinik häufig Antikoagulanzien angewendet, die in unterschiedlicher Art und Weise in das Gerinnungsgeschehen eingreifen. Neben der Reduktion bzw. Verhinderung der Thrombozytenfunktionen (Aggregation, Adhäsion, Aktivierung, Synthese und Ausschüttung von Aktivierungsprodukten) werden Hemmstoffe von beteiligten Gerinnungsproteasen, insbesondere des Thromboplastin/Faktor VIIa-Komplexes, des Faktors Xa und insbesondere des Thrombins (Faktor IIa) untersucht und angewendet.Various methods are used to prevent these pathophysiological processes. In order to prevent thrombus formation or to support its dissolution (thrombolysis), anticoagulants are often used in the clinic, which affect the coagulation process in different ways intervention. In addition to the reduction or prevention of platelet functions (aggregation, adhesion, activation, synthesis and release of activation products), inhibitors of coagulation proteases involved, in particular the thromboplastin / factor VIIa complex, factor Xa and in particular thrombin (factor IIa) are examined and applied .

Ein besonders spezifischer und potenter Inhibitor des Thrombins ist das Hirudin, das ursprünglich aus den Speicheldrüsen des Blutegels Hirudo medicinalis isoliert wurde. Mittlerweile sind verschiedene Varianten, Analoga, Fragmente und Mutanten davon bekannt und werden auf ihre Tauglichkeit untersucht. In seiner natürlich vorkommenden Form ist das Hirudin sulfatiert, jedoch wurde festgestellt, daß die interessante biologische Aktivität auch bei der nicht sulfatierten Form erhalten bleibt. Daher kann das Hirudin bzw. die Hirudin-Derivate in bequemer Weise mit den Mitteln der Gentechnologie hergestellt werden.A particularly specific and potent inhibitor of thrombin is hirudin, which was originally isolated from the salivary glands of the leech Hirudo medicinalis. Various variants, analogs, fragments and mutants thereof are now known and are being examined for their suitability. In its naturally occurring form, the hirudin is sulfated, but it has been found that the interesting biological activity is retained even in the non-sulfated form. The hirudin or the hirudin derivatives can therefore be conveniently produced using the means of genetic engineering.

Zu den Blut-Antikoagulanzien zählt auch das Heparin, dessen Fragmente und Varianten sowie synthetische Hemmstoffe, die die katalytische Aktivität des Thrombins und anderer Gerinnungsproteasen, z.B. Faktor Xa, inhibieren. Auch diese Komponenten können bei der Prophylaxe und/oder Therapie von thrombotischen bzw. präthrombotischen Komplikationen eingesetzt werden. Die Suche nach spezifischeren und potenteren Antikoagulanzien bzw. Antithrombotika reflektiert die unbefriedigende Situation, daß die klinisch etablierten Substanzen wie Heparine oder Vitamin K-Antagonisten entweder nicht effektiv genug sind oder, daß sie unerwünschte und zum Teil gravierende Nebenwirkungen aufweisen. Hirudin ist der stärkste derzeit bekannte Thrombininhibitor, der auch nicht in die anderen Enzyme der Blutgerinnungskaskade eingreift. Bisher wurden keine wesentlichen Nebeneinflüsse auf die Herzschlagrate, die Atmung, den Blutdruck, die Anzahl der Thrombozyten, den Fibrinogen- oder Hämoglobingehalt beobachtet. Daher handelt es sich bei Hirudin um ein bevorzugtes Blut-Antikoagulationsmittel.Blood anticoagulants also include heparin, its fragments and variants, and synthetic inhibitors that inhibit the catalytic activity of thrombin and other coagulation proteases, such as factor Xa. These components can also be used in the prophylaxis and / or therapy of thrombotic or prethrombotic complications. The search for more specific and potent anticoagulants or antithrombotics reflects the unsatisfactory situation that the clinically established substances such as heparins or vitamin K antagonists are either not effective enough or that they have undesirable and sometimes serious side effects. Hirudin is the strongest thrombin inhibitor currently known and does not interfere with the other enzymes in the blood coagulation cascade. So far, no significant side effects on the heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, the number of platelets, the fibrinogen or hemoglobin content have been observed. Therefore, hirudin is a preferred blood anticoagulant.

Die Anwendung von Antikoagulanzien bzw. Antithrombotika am Patienten bringt naturgemäß das Risiko einer erhöhten Blutungsneigung mit sich, die in extremen Situationen, z.B. bei unsachgemäßer Anwendung bzw. Dosierung zu unkontrollierten Blutungen führen kann. Um in einer derartigen Situation der unerwünschten Blutungsneigung gegensteuern zu können, ist es bei einigen Substanzen, deren Beschaffenheit (Molekulargewicht, Struktur) es erlaubt, möglich, diese schnell durch Dialyse aus dem Blutplasma des Patienten zu entfernen. Wenn dies aber aufgrund der apparativen Ausstattung oder aus sonstigen Gründen nicht möglich ist, muß ein Gegenmittel, das auch als Antidot bezeichnet wird, zur Verfügung gestellt werden.The use of anticoagulants or antithrombotics on the patient naturally entails the risk of an increased tendency to bleed, which occurs in extreme situations, e.g. improper use or dosage can lead to uncontrolled bleeding. In order to be able to counteract the undesirable tendency to bleed in such a situation, it is possible for some substances, the nature (molecular weight, structure) of which allows dialysis to be rapidly removed from the patient's blood plasma. However, if this is not possible due to the equipment or for other reasons, an antidote, also known as an antidote, must be made available.

Als Gegenmittel sind bereits einige Substanzen bzw. Präparate vorgeschlagen worden. So zeigen die Thrombine und deren blockierte Varianten einen gewissen Hirudin-neutralisierenden Effekt, jedoch ist einerseits die Anwendung von aktivem Thrombin bei Patienten, die mit Blut-Antikoagulanzien behandelt werden, in der Regel kontra-indiziert und andererseits ist die Präparation von inaktivem Thrombin durch Anwendung niedermolekularer, kovalente Bindungen eingehende Inhibitoren aufgrund der Toxizität dieser Substanzen problematisch. Außerdem fehlen auch Erfahrungen, ob diese Komplexe eine möglicherweise antigene Wirkung besitzen. Diese Komplexe sind auch aufgrund ihrer Natur nicht geeignet, niedermolekulare (synthetische) Antithrombine bzw. Antithrombotika zu neutralisieren. Das Meizothrombin, ein Intermediärprodukt, das bei der Aktivierung vom Prothrombin zu Thrombin kurzfristig entsteht, besitzt zwar eine gewisse Potenz zur Antagonisierung, jedoch kann es sich in vivo schnell zu Thrombin umwandeln und ist als solches in der Regel kontraindiziert.Some substances or preparations have already been proposed as antidotes. The thrombins and their blocked variants show a certain hirudin-neutralizing effect, but on the one hand the use of active thrombin in patients who are treated with blood anticoagulants is usually contraindicated and on the other hand the preparation of inactive thrombin by application Low molecular weight, covalent bonds inhibitors due to the toxicity of these substances problematic. There is also no experience as to whether these complexes may have an antigenic effect. Because of their nature, these complexes are not suitable for neutralizing low-molecular (synthetic) antithrombines or antithrombotics. Meizothrombin, an intermediate product that arises during activation from prothrombin to thrombin, has a certain potency to antagonize, but it can quickly convert to thrombin in vivo and as such is usually contraindicated.

Die Untersuchung des Faktor VII als Hirudin-Antidot in entsprechenden Modellen erbrachte keine befriedigenden Ergebnisse. In der europäischen Patentanmeldung EP A 89.810733.9 wird die Verwendung von Faktor VIII oder Fragmenten des Faktors VIII als Gegenmittel für Blut-Antikoagulanzien beschrieben. Bekannt ist auch, daß solche Substanzen verwendet werden können, die die Konzentration an Faktor VIII im Blut erhöhen, wie beispielsweise das Desmopressin (Mannucci, P.M.; Progress in Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 8 (1986), S. 19-45).The examination of factor VII as a hirudin antidote in corresponding models did not produce any satisfactory results. European patent application EP A 89.810733.9 describes the use of factor VIII or fragments of factor VIII as an antidote for blood anticoagulants. It is also known that substances which increase the concentration of factor VIII in the blood can be used, such as, for example, desmopressin (Mannucci, PM; Progress in Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 8 (1986), pp. 19-45).

Da aber auch diese Gegenmittel nicht für alle Anwendungsbereiche ausreichen, besteht nach wie vor die Notwendigkeit, effektivere und an Nebenwirkungen ärmere Gegenmittel für Blut-Antikoagulanzien, Antithrombotika bzw. Plättchenantagonisten bereitzustellen.However, since these antidotes are not sufficient for all areas of application, there is still a need to provide more effective antidotes for blood anticoagulants, antithrombotics or platelet antagonists with fewer side effects.

Unter antikoagulatorischen bzw. antithrombotischen Substanzen werden im Rahmen der vorliegenden Anmeldung Glykosaminoglykane und sulfatierte Polysaccharide, darunter Heparine, im besonderen unfraktioniertes und niedermolekulares (LMW-) Pentosanpolysulfat, Heparansulfat, Dermatansulfat oder. Condroitinsulfat sowie Hirudine, deren Fragmente, z. B. Hirugen (J. Biol. Chem. 265 (1990), 13484-13487; EP-A-0 333 356), Analoga oder Mutanten, z. B. Hirulog® (WO 92/13952), gekoppelte Hirudine, z. B. PEG-Hirudin oder Hirutonine natürliche oder synthetische Inhibitoren des Thromboplastin/Faktor VIIaKomplexes, des Faktors Xa oder des Thrombins, Komponenten des Protein C-Systems, nämlich aktiviertes Protein C, Protein S, Thrombomodulin, Fibrinaggregations- oder Vernetzungshemmstoffe, Substanzen aus der Vitamin K-Antagonistengruppe, Substanzen, die die Plättchenaktivierung und/oder -aggregation bzw. Plättchenadhäsion beeinflussen, wie insbesondere Fibrinogenrezeptor-Antagonisten, oder die endogene Fibrinolysekapazität zu steigern vermögen, wie insbesondere PAI-1 Inhibitoren oder Synthese- und Sekretionsstimulatoren von Plasminogenaktivator-Inhibitoren und somit indirekt antithrombotisch wirken, verstanden.In the context of the present application, anticoagulant or antithrombotic substances include glycosaminoglycans and sulfated polysaccharides, including heparins, in particular unfractionated and low molecular weight (LMW) pentosan polysulfate, heparan sulfate, dermatan sulfate or. Condroitin sulfate and hirudins, their fragments, e.g. B. Hirugen (J. Biol. Chem. 265 (1990), 13484-13487; EP-A-0 333 356), analogs or mutants, e.g. B. Hirulog® (WO 92/13952), coupled hirudins, e.g. B. PEG-hirudin or hirutonins natural or synthetic inhibitors of thromboplastin / factor VIIa complex, factor Xa or thrombin, components of the protein C system, namely activated protein C, protein S, thrombomodulin, fibrin aggregation or cross-linking inhibitors, substances from the vitamin K antagonist group, substances which influence platelet activation and / or aggregation or platelet adhesion, such as, in particular, fibrinogen receptor antagonists, or which are able to increase endogenous fibrinolysis capacity, such as, in particular, PAI-1 inhibitors or synthesis and secretion stimulators of plasminogen activator inhibitors and thus act indirectly antithrombotic, understood.

Da die genannten gekoppelten Hirudine, z. B. PEG-Hirudin, aus dem Organismus nur schwer entfernbar sind, ist die Bereitstellung eines geeigneten Antidots für gekoppelte Hirudine besonders wichtig.Since the above-mentioned hirudins, e.g. B. PEG-hirudin, from which the organism is difficult to remove, the provision of a suitable antidote for coupled hirudins is particularly important.

Überraschenderweise wurde gefunden, daß Prothrombin (Faktor II) hohe Wirksamkeit als Gegenmittel für Blut-Antikoagulanzien besitzt.Surprisingly, it was found that prothrombin (factor II) has a high activity as an antidote for blood anticoagulants.
